PTSD/Trauma
Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence-based treatment for PTSD and trauma-related symptoms. CPT helps individuals process and reframe unhelpful beliefs related to their trauma, allowing them to regain a sense of safety, trust, and control in their lives. I work collaboratively with clients to adaptively apply this modality to each unique case.

PTSD/Trauma
Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
A trauma-informed approach underlies all of my work as a therapist. I know that many clients come to therapy not specifically because of trauma, but because they feel lonely or inadequate, they are depressed or anxious, or just cannot seem to have the intimacy they crave. Sometimes acknowledging trauma comes later in the therapy work and that is okay. Just know that I trust that you will talk about it when you are ready.
I would like to join you in acknowledging how the past has affected your present and in charting a course to healing that works for you. You may wish to talk about particular pains from the past and you may wish to focus on the future. We will work together to find the balance that is right for you, so that you can live the life that you really want to live.

Infused With Love Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC, KAP
Establishing safety and stabilization are two very important areas to focus on when working with trauma and PTSD. We focus on helping people to attach emotion to their experience, process their experiences and emotions, manage and cope with any symptoms and regain a sense of safety and control. For trauma, we believe at Infused With Love Therapy that utilizing many different techniques other than talk therapy is the most effective. We focus on utilizing EMDR, ketamine assisted psychotherapy and IFS to help people in their journey going from victim to SURVIVOR..

PTSD/Trauma
Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can continue to shape how you experience yourself, other people, and the world long after the original events have ended. You may understand intellectually that you're no longer in danger, yet still find yourself reacting intensely to certain situations, struggling to trust others, feeling disconnected from your emotions, or repeating patterns you wish you could leave behind. My approach to trauma therapy goes beyond recounting what happened or learning to manage symptoms. We work at a pace that respects your capacity, exploring how past experiences continue to influence your present while creating new emotional experiences that can help shift deeply learned expectations about safety, connection, and your own worth. I work especially well with people who experienced relational trauma, narcissistic abuse, childhood abuse or neglect, or complex trauma.

Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include trauma therapy, PTSD, complex trauma, emotional regulation, post-traumatic growth, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who have experienced trauma, including single-incident and complex or developmental trauma. Many clients come to therapy struggling with flashbacks, hypervigilance, anxiety, avoidance, or difficulty trusting themselves or others. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, helping clients process traumatic experiences safely, develop coping strategies, and gradually reclaim a sense of control. Therapy is a supportive space to reduce the impact of trauma, strengthen resilience, and build a life where healing, growth, and self-understanding are possible.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The impact of a single, traumatic event or experiencing an environment that provides a chronic sense of danger can have a debilitating effect on how we view the world and how we function in it. Through therapy, we'll identify how your experiences of trauma are manifested in your body and thoughts, and work on improving upon your awareness of triggers and improving coping behaviors.

Shaelyn Cataldo
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C, EMDRIA Certified Therapist™
Trauma is not simply what happened to you, but what your mind and body learned to do in order to survive. I help clients process unresolved experiences, understand their nervous system responses, and heal patterns that continue to impact their daily lives and relationships.

PTSD/Trauma
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trauma can leave your mind and body stuck in survival mode, even long after the event. We start by building steadiness and a sense of safety in daily life, then work at a manageable pace to reduce the ways the past is showing up in the present. My goal is to help you regain control, rebuild trust in yourself, and move forward with a life that is not defined by what happened.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma can leave lasting imprints—flashbacks, anxiety, emotional numbness, or a sense of being “stuck.” Healing begins with safety and understanding. In therapy, we’ll use evidence-based trauma approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and DNMS to process and release painful memories at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we’ll work toward restoring trust in yourself and the world, helping you feel more grounded, empowered, and whole.

PTSD/Trauma
Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we experience a trauma, it fundamentally changes our beliefs about ourselves, other people, or the world—or all three. These changes can be tremendously disruptive to our lives and our relationships. I work with trauma in three ways: with techniques to address acute symptoms, with psychodynamic work to understand and challenge the maladaptive beliefs and patterns that resulted from the trauma, and with EMDR to intensively reprocess the trauma in a healthier, more integrated way.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma has a way of showing up and persisting despite our efforts to keep it at bay. For some, it’s like a thorn that has settled into place and doesn’t hurt too badly as long as you focus your attention elsewhere. For others, it’s an unavoidable, constant source of pain, anger, and fear. Whether it happened recently or decades ago, trauma can take up valuable space in our lives. This may come in the form of unwanted memories, difficulty trusting others, feeling on edge, irritability, avoiding certain situations, or maybe all of the above. Unfortunately, efforts to avoid thinking about past traumatic events often keep people from seeking treatment and finding relief. Although challenging, addressing and resolving emotional wounds can be incredibly liberating and rewarding. Trauma treatment can positively shift the lens through which you see yourself, your relationships, and ultimately the world around you.

Dr. Jadah Petty

Trauma is an experience that can impact nearly every aspect of someone's life, from relationships/trust, to work, to self-esteem, to mood and the list goes on.

Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Trauma can leave a lasting impact on how you think, feel, relate to others, and experience the world. You may find yourself struggling with anxiety, fear, intrusive memories, emotional numbness, irritability, difficulty trusting others, sleep problems, avoidance, or feeling constantly on guard. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide compassionate, trauma-informed support in a safe and nonjudgmental environment where you can work through your experiences at a pace that feels appropriate for you.
Our approach focuses on helping you understand how trauma may be affecting your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and daily life while developing practical tools for emotional regulation, grounding, coping, boundaries, and rebuilding a sense of safety and confidence. We recognize that healing is not about forgetting what happened or rushing the process—it is about helping you regain a sense of control and develop healthier ways of moving forward.
For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be incorporated through prayer, Scripture, spiritual reflection, and exploration of hope, identity, forgiveness, and healing. We respect each person's unique experience and work collaboratively to identify goals that support meaningful recovery.
Your trauma does not have to define your future. With compassionate support, practical tools, and a safe space to heal, it is possible to move from simply surviving toward greater peace, strength, connection, and hope.
